From our collections, #Barbie drives a 1962 #AustinHealey convertible with #Ken as her passenger.

Do you have a used 1960-2023 Barbie house, plane, or boat with a great North Dakota story? We’re collecting contemporary toys reflecting our history. https://t.co/LIIXNmM2kM

Santa’s beard may be the most festive during the holiday season. But here are five other beards belonging to famous figures found in our museum collection that might just rival the big man’s. https://t.co/iRH1qIgMHf

This artifact brings me so much joy. I like to imagine they put it together while blasting the Seven and the Ragged Tiger album, because why wouldn't you

We're throwing it back to 1984 today with this Duran Duran puzzle donated to us by a woman from Sterling who used it with her children. We wonder if they were as big of Duran Duran fans as we're thinking their mom was.

Gift giving can be hard work. Things that were once thoughtful gifts might seem like bad ideas today. Here are some examples from our museum collection of what not to give your special someone this #ValentinesDay. https://t.co/VSchhk5wSx #museumblog

I wish we could get over this idea that education is only worth pursuing if it leads to a job. learning is a wonderful thing whether it brings you a paycheck or not. art and beauty and literature are worth exploring whether they yield a profit or not.
